Tetapi matamu dan hatimu hanya tertuju kepada pengejaran untung, kepada penumpahan darah orang yang tak bersalah, kepada pemerasan dan kepada penganiayaan!
Tetapi padamu tiadalah mata atau hati, melainkan akan beroleh laba yang keji dan akan menumpahkan darah orang yang tiada bersalah dan akan menganiayakan dan mengusik orang.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But thine eyes and thine heart [are] not but for thy covetousness,.... He was wholly intent upon gratifying that lust; his heart was meditating, contriving, and forming schemes for that purpose; and his eyes were looking out here and there for proper objects and opportunities to exercise it:
and for to shed innocent blood; in order to get their money, goods, and possessions into his hands; avarice often leads to murder:
and for oppression, and for violence, to do [it]; by making incursions, and seizing upon the properties of men, and converting them to his own use; so true it is, that covetousness, or the love of money, is the root of all evil, 1 Timothy 6:10.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Covetousness - literally, gain. Besides exacting forced labor Jehoiakim, to procure the necessary means for the vast expenses he incurred, put innocent people to death on various pretexts, and escheated their property.
